Rudyard Kipling's story of a woman, her surrogate family, and an unfortunate gentleman caller is an unlikely choice for Valentine's Day. Still, I think Mary is a romantic at heart, even if she'd never characterize herself that way. And she certainly carries more than a little horror with her!
Our theme music this time around is Vivek Arbhishek's "Santa Is Coming," which is theoretically a Christmas horror theme but I like it in this context. Here's a link to the song on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_L2R4OPAd4
I'll be back for St. Patrick's Day with Algernon Blackwood's "Ancient Lights," or maybe "Teig O'Kane and the Corpse," which my father told me when I was young. Until then, be good to people.
